Sports, mostly NBA, let's go Knicks!
now that we know they can change calls in 5 seconds from the booth, all of this is totally inexcusable
Pass Interference is still the most ridiculous penalty in football. Referees are TERRIBLE at making the call in real time, but they threw a year-long hissy fit when the league tried to make it reviewable.

I was about to write something defending Belichick's legacy and then I saw he had *only two playoff appearances* in 11 NFL seasons when anyone other than Tom Brady was his QB. Obviously he's good, but is he really better than Andy Reid? Those two guys are on the same level for me.

great job!
Knicks can start:
Brunson, Bridges, OG, KAT and Mitch Rob
Off the bench:
Hart, Clarkson, Deuce, Yabusele, Kolek, Hukporti and Dadiet
That's an excellent, deep team.

Haliburton has now made five or fewer field goals in 7 games this playoffs. He's made 10 shots only 4 times.
For context, Shai has made 10 shots 16 times. Never seen anyone get credit for others' good play like Haliburton.

Stop telling me Haliburton doesn’t have subpar games. I don’t care if he has another buzzer beater, there’s no reason why he should only have FIVE points in the 4th!!!

Haliburton is averaging 2.8 points per quarter in the finals so far. So clutch!!!!
